Thinking of you Tom and Todd at this time of sadness. We hope your fond memories of good family times will help you through these days, along with the support of your family and friends. Although we didn't spend time with your parents, we remember so many wonderful fun times we shared with the Engle grandchildren, when all of you were with Grandpa Bob and Grandma Elaine, together with us and our children, Tam, Tomasan, Tracey, and Todd. I know you kids all enjoyed it as we did. Wish I could put my hand on the pictures to share with you now, but that might take a few days!. Our love and blessings to all of you. Tom and Beverly Newcomer and family.
